Ortiz Company is able to produce two products, G and B, with the same machine in its factory. The following information is available.

	Product G						Product B
Selling price per unit			$	200					$	140
Variable costs per unit				40						80
Contribution margin per unit			$	160					$	60
Machine hours to produce 1 unit		0.4	hours					2.0	hours
Maximum unit sales per month		840	units					200	units

The company presently operates the machine for a single eight-hour shift for 22 working days each month. Management is thinking about operating the machine for two shifts, which will increase its productivity by another eight hours per day for 22 days per month. This change would require $6,400 additional fixed costs per month.
